Four of us got a great deal on a three bedroom condo in/on Hammock Bay Golf and CC near/on Marco Island. It was dirt cheap ($500/wk44) we are staying the 10-17th of March.

Anyone have any suggestions with regard to dining, attractions or places to see?

This is truly a R&R trip with no kids, no pets, no parents, no siblings, no work, no cell phones, no e-mail, no emergencies, no issues, no problems, no discrepencies, no pissed off customers, no "I have to talk to you" telephone calls. Nothing of importance with lots of rest and relaxation. I have been told the www.snookinn.com is the place to go but I am sure there is more to see.....

I am only answerig two questions for one week & they are:

"would you like something to eat?" or "do you want something to drink?"

Let me answer that in advance YES .... and YES:D

I have been to the Snook-Great place to drink. I'm told the food is good. Naples is close and you can always get something good there.

What kind of stuff do are you looking for? 5th Ave in Naples has nice shopping and side walk cafes, king of upscale. The snook is nice to sit and watch the boats go by while having a drink or lunch (its really fun watching people try to dock in the tide/currents). You are staying between Marco and Naples, but closer to Marco. There will be alot of traffic then so getting in to Old Naples will be like 35 - 40 mins, 10mins to Marco but slow going around the island. Let me know if there is more you want to know. - Chad

Look up Captain Bubby (don't know his last name) in Marco, or Captain Will Garriety in Naples and have them take you fishing. Both guys are awesome guides and you will catch fish. If you are looking for good dining try "Chops" in Naples. "The Dock" in Naples is also a really cool place. I think I got drunk at a place called the "Sand Bar" in Marco Island a few years ago:confused: . They had really cold beer and a Golden Tee machine:cool: . Enjoy the trip

I was in Naples 2 weeks ago. The weather was great but I'd say the median age of the population was 65. OMG it was like where the old go to die....

Haven't been to MI since I was a kid. Lots of stingrays if I remember right. Make sure you shuffle those feet. Not sure about dining etc. I assume you are flying into Ft. Myers and driving south?

"Anyone have any suggestions with regard to dining"

Aside from the Snook Inn, Joeys - Italian/Pizza on Collier Blvd not quite to San Marco Dr. Island Cafe, also on Collier just past Jetset Surf Shop, good food usually kind of pricey but if you go at 5:30pm they usually have a $25/pp deal that is well worth it - soup/salad, app, main course, desert. Michelbobs for take out ribs across the street (Collier) from Jetset.
